NOTE FROM CHRIS:
Director James Cameron’s $300-million-budget scifi
CGI spectacular “Avatar” hits theaters this Friday.
So what has the dude behind “Terminator”
and “Titanic” cooked up for us this time?
The Top 14 Surprises in “Avatar”
14> Audiences haven’t been this spellbound by a blue-faced
exercise in celluloid self-gratification since David
Carradine’s homemade snuff film.
13> The movie ends after 30 minutes, when Arnold Schwarzenegger
returns as the Budget Terminator.
12> Due to a blown budget, credits are written in crayon on extra
wide notebook paper.
11> Since avatars are half-human/half-alien, Dick Cheney was
allowed to do a cameo as himself.
10> The leaves on the trees are actually $50 bills.
9> “Che’ri” the red alien and “Ke’li” the green alien look
suspiciously like strippers.
8> Squint just the right amount and you’ll swear there’s a plot.
7> Of the $300 million budget, one third went to erasing
Sigourney Weaver’s wrinkles using CGI.
6> The leader of the blue-skinned race is none other than
Courtney Love.
5> Fun fight scene where the blonde Marine tries to pry alien
Ti’ger out of his spaceship with a 9-iron.
4> Wilford Brimley’s surprise cameo as Gargamel.
3> The giant space portal thru which the Marines travel is
actually an extreme close-up of Julia Roberts’mouth.
2> A hollow, mind-numbing suckfest has never *looked* this
spectacular!
and Topfive.com’s Number 1 Surprise in “Avatar”…
1> Only IMAX theaters can show the film because regular screens
are too small to display James Cameron’s massive ego.
